Team Brady leads by just a single point over Team Rafa at the top of the Championship standings as the UIM E1 World Championship presented by PIF heads to Lagos this weekend for its historic African debut, setting up a thrilling penultimate round in the battle to crown the 2025 ‘Champions of the Water’.
The E1 Lagos GP presented by FirstBank takes place from 4 to 5 October, with only 21 points covering the top four teams and everything to play for ahead of the season finale in Miami.
Team Brady sits atop the standings with 135 points, closely pursued by Team Rafa on 134, Team Aoki on 125, and Team Blue Rising on 114, making the rivalry at the top fiercer than ever.
The Championship’s revolutionary E1 RaceBirds – all-electric powerboats that fly above the water at racing speeds – will provide spectacular racing action for the thousands of expected spectators.
The race will further help position Lagos as a growing hub for international sporting events while demonstrating the city’s commitment to green innovation for regional waterways.
Rodi Basso, founder and Chief Executive Officer of E1, said: “Bringing E1 to Africa represents a pivotal moment in our mission to grow electric racing globally. Having Didier Drogba and Gabrielle Lemaire – who perfectly embody E1’s values – at the heart of this journey makes it even more meaningful.”
